Cable Solutions by Application
Cable is rarely chosen by category alone — it is chosen by what the machine does. Each page below covers one application, the loads and environments that decide the construction, and the specific cable types built for it. 13 applications · 142 cable types referenced (155 recommendations in total).
Cable Carriers & Drag Chains
Bend radius, torsion and jacket choice for continuous flexing in a carrier.
Selection guideCranes & Hoisting
Flat vs round, steel wire reinforcement and festoon or reeling duty.
Selection guideReeling & Drum Machinery
D/d ratio, layer winding and tensile reinforcement for motor-driven reels.
Selection guideBulk Material Handling
Abrasion resistance and long suspended runs on stackers and grab cranes.
Selection guideRobotics & Automation
Torsion-rated dress pack cable, servo and encoder feedback in one run.
Selection guideElevators & Lifts
Traveling cable core count, load-bearing steel wire and shaft flex life.
Selection guideMining & Tunnelling
Trailing and reeling cable that survives dragging, impact and water.
Selection guideMarine, Offshore & Subsea
Buoyancy, water blocking and armour for ROV, subsea and marine duty.
Selection guideEV Charging & Renewables
Outdoor-rated jackets, handling flex and voltage class for EV, solar and wind.
Selection guidePower Transmission
Voltage class, insulation system, screens and installation armouring.
Selection guideIndustrial Networks
Impedance, shielding and drag chain rating for Ethernet and fieldbus.
Selection guideFire Safety & High Temperature
Circuit integrity standards, LSZH and continuous high temperature service.
Selection guideMachine Tools & Metalworking
Coolant immersion, chip abrasion and weld spatter in three-shift running.
Selection guideHow to use these pages
Each application page is written as a specification aid rather than a catalogue listing. Work through it in three steps and you will have everything needed for an accurate quotation.
Identify the duty
Each page lists the loads that actually decide cable life in that application — bend radius and torsion in a carrier, D/d ratio on a drum, buoyancy subsea, circuit integrity in a fire.
Check the cable types
Each recommended product links to its own page with the full specification table — conductor class, voltage rating, bend radius, cycle life and the standards it is tested against.
Send the selection data
Every page ends with the exact list of data we need to quote — conductor size, core count, voltage, length, quantity and target standard. Use the inquiry form to send it in one message.
Cannot find your application?
Send us the machine type, the environment and the electrical data. We will confirm the construction and quote against it, including custom designs where a catalogue type does not fit.
